Quake Arena Arcade Fragging Xbox Live On Dec 15th

Fans of fragfests (surely that's everyone) should set aside some spare Microsoft Points next week, as Bethesda and id have confirmed that Quake Arena Arcade is coming to the Xbox Live Arcade in just a few days time.

Resurrecting the pure FPS gameplay of Quake III Arena, Quake Arena Arcade supports fragging for up to fifteen players over Xbox Live, with six game-types including Deathmatch, Capture the Flag and Harvester modes. Presumably that last one doesn't involve eating a sharing platter with the family.

With 30 classic maps, twelve maps exclusive to the XBLA version, HD and widescreen support, and a new single-player campaign, Quake Arena Arcade should be a triumphant return for id's legendary franchise. Look out for Quake Arena Arcade on XBLA from December 15th. There's no word on price just yet.
